Awesome! What a nice change to see a Mustang in NMF with authentic, flat paint. It really adds such realism to the scheme.

Yay, for no silver paint and flat OD paint!!!! :D

Would be nice to see the high resolution ones Jack. Thanks in advance.

Great job Mike, Dave and all others.

Some of the unique details that went into this one raise the bar yet again.

I'll let Mike VB name names but he's a VERY nice gent who is a X-Navy fighter pilot now in SA and appreciates history!!!
Jack Ilfrey would be proud of what they've done!!!
BTW Mike said the P-38 and Spit mirror are soon to be added. Also coming is something never seen on a restored warbird but I'm sworn to secrecy :shock:
